How do I find out about the animation festivals and submission dates in the UK?
7 October 2006 at 2:28 am
If you mean UK festivals exclusively dedicated to animation, and if you add Animex www.animex.net and Animated Exeter www.animatedexeter.co.uk, both in February, to the three festivals mentioned above, then that’s pretty much all that we know about. You will have to check individual websites for submission dates.
Perhaps other visitors can add to this list…
There’s a very good Directory of International Film and Video Festivals at www.britfilms.com/festivals run by the British Council. This includes UK film festivals which accept animation in their broader selection.
Good luck!
